it’s looking like christmas around here!

I’ve had most of my decorating done for a while now, but had been putting off posting pictures because I wanted to do some more things and change others.
I’ve since ran out of gas and decided to leave the rest for next year’s decorating.
I did find time for a new wreath for the front door.

I was inspired by this wreath I found from Martha Stewart.

Martha always does it up right!

I kept the entry pretty simple this year – aka I got tired of fiddling with it and just walked away 😀

I swapped out last years’ red ribbons for burlap this time and like it SO much better.

The living room’s Christmas decor got a makeover from last year as well.
Red tree ribbon went bye-bye and was replaced with black and white striped grosgrain.
Red ornaments also got left in the box and I stayed with a silver and gold scheme.
And, the red trimmed tree skirt just got covered up with burlap sacks 🙂

If anyone is thinking I’m sending a pregnancy hint with the 4th stocking I’m not, it’s our dog’s 😀
Who, by the way, made an appearance in almost all of the pictures in this post.  I feel like it could be Where’s Waldo!

That’s pretty much it!
There’s a little decor up in the dining room, but it’s overshadowed by the piles of junk still hanging out on the table 🙂
Merry Christmas!!!

I’ll be linking up to these fab parties!

    Ah, I love it all. Great idea to use the ribbon on your tree. Everything looks so simple and beautiful. That's my kind of Christmas decor!

    That wreath is STUNNING! I like it better than Marthas! I pinned it to! I also really like the use of your ribbon as garland. It really makes the tree special. Everything is just beautiful!

    Hello! I just stumbled across your blog, and I'm in love. I saw in the images of your little girl's room that you had noted the paint color so I'm guessing that you've listed your living room wall color somewhere, but I can't find it. 🙁 Could you share that with us?

    Thanks!
    Your newest, biggest fan! 🙂
